You should always carefully read the description and Notes ;-)
Note:
Each front will not persist after popFront is called, so the
caller must copy its contents (e.g. by calling to!string) when
retention is needed. If the caller needs to retain a copy of
every line, use the byLineCopy function instead.

Unfortunately you are not the first one who bumped into this
problem and this non intuitive behavior of byLine is heavily
disputed.
Duh... I've read the documentation but managed to jump over these
explanations... reading carefully would have saved me some pain!
Hopefully I'll be more careful next time.
